Built in 1928, this stately Georgian home is one of the true “Grande Dames” of Chevy Chase, DC. This beautiful residence is set on a gorgeous and private 1/2 acre lot, designed by the master garden designer, Lila Fendrick. The level front lawn is screened from the street and framed by a horseshoe driveway, allowing ample off-street parking. The formality of the front yard gives way to stone walls and beautiful gardens surrounding the backyard swimming pool. Fully renovated in 2006, the interior of this 8,200 sqft seven bedroom, four full- and two half- bath home is a marriage of the best of old and new, with an elevator servicing three of its four floors and spectacular spaces for entertaining. Seemingly from a bygone era, the gracious scale and careful attention to detail is apparent the moment you enter, from the high ceilings and generous proportions of the entry foyer and its original light fixture, expansive front and back parlors, to the lovely formal dining room, sun-filled solarium and porte cochere. The kitchen is graced by a fully functional 1936 Chambers Imperial stove, which functions as a centerpiece (and conversation piece) for the entire home. The sunny breakfast room and quiet tree-shaded porch, overlooking the lawn of the Bulgarian Chancery next door, are wonderful retreats in any season. The second level has a lovely primary bedroom, two additional bedrooms, secluded office and a breathtaking library which surveys the rear garden. The third level has two bedrooms and a view overlooking the entire neighborhood, with the tower of the Washington Cathedral visible on a winter’s day. The lower level, with its entertainment center, wet bar, pool table and exercise room, opens to the lovely trellis room and generous pool terrace. Like the entry level, this area is also designed for gracious and comfortable entertaining. Caterers can gain easy access to the backyard through the private car gate and driveway extension. Modern updates to the property include a full hard-wired security system, an operational battery backup system, and integrated intercoms throughout, combined with a surprising amount of storage for a property of its age. Not only is the home remarkable, but the neighborhood as well. One block from Lafayette Elementary School’s tennis courts, splash park and marvelous playgrounds, and a short walk to the Broad Branch Market and the shops and restaurants of Connecticut Avenue. Chevy Chase, DC is a village within the city, and this wonderful block of Rittenhouse Street is a destination each Halloween for hundreds of children who know it as a prime trick or treat location. This unique house has only been available to the market a few times in its long history. Don’t miss your chance to call this special residence your home!

With a quietly commanding presence in Spring Valley, this fully reimagined residence by District495 reflects a level of design and execution rarely seen at this scale. This home has been taken down to its essence and rebuilt with a singular focus on elegance, proportion, and modern livability. Curated by a best-in-class team to include MCD Studio and Martha Vicas of Sophisté, the result is a residence that feels cohesive, intentional, and complete.

From the moment you enter, the experience is defined by light and volume. Clean architectural lines are softened by layered textures, bespoke millwork, and a warm, tonal palette that creates interiors that feel both elevated and deeply livable. Every finish has been curated with intention, from hand-selected stone and custom cabinetry to designer lighting that quietly punctuates each space.

The kitchen anchors the home as both a showpiece and a gathering place that’s seamlessly integrated into the surrounding living and entertaining spaces. Throughout, the home unfolds with a sense of ease, formal and informal moments exist in balance, while more private spaces offer a calm, retreat-like atmosphere.

Outdoors, the rear grounds unfold as a private extension of the home that’s thoughtfully designed for both quiet moments and elegant entertaining. Professionally landscaped with layered plantings and ambient lighting, the setting is equally suited for intimate evenings or larger garden gatherings. Beyond, the property enjoys a rare and uninterrupted backdrop, backing to the protected Dalecarlia Reservoir grounds that offer a sense of openness and natural beauty that is seldom found in the city.

Behind the walls, the home is equally considered. Advanced systems, EV charging outlets, integrated smart home technology, and future-forward infrastructure, such as provisions for an elevator, speak to a level of planning that anticipates both comfort and longevity. Enjoy the ease of walkable living just moments from Spring Valley’s most beloved destinations - Millie’s, Bluestone Lane, Wagshal’s Market, Crate & Barrel, and more.
